Justin Benzer eloquently shared the details of his recent work identifying the success that having a collaborative model of primary care and behavioral health can have for patients and care teams alike. I appreciated his step by step approach and delivery method as well as his emphasis on quality improvement, overall organizational climate and team work. The most compelling point for me (that I think he drove very well) was that a team with a shared concept of the work is not only more effective at meeting quality goals/metrics, but also more inclined to find & develop ways to improve specifically because they have a focus and shared vision. A point that I think I can use in my current work as we develop collaborative care teams for the UT Dell Medical School.
